Definitions
- the invention relates to a pair of scissors with one another via a joint connected Beck's, especially hairdressing scissors.
- US-A-3 666 975 publishes a pair of scissors according to the preamble of claim 1.
- JP-A-2031788 publishes a pair of scissors according to the preamble of claim 2.
- Known scissors work on the principle of two cutting edges, which move around a common, fixed pivot point.
- the cutting edges slide on each other in such a way that they touch at one point (cutting point).
- the cutting point moves from the direction of the common pivot point of the scissors towards the tip of the scissors.
- This also changes the opening angle of the scissors, i.e. the angle of the cutting edges running towards each other.
- Thread-like clippings e.g. B. hair, slides depending on the opening angle, sharpness, etc. more or less long before the actual cutting point until it is cut, held and then separated.
- the invention is based on the object, thread-like clippings, especially hair, even over its circumference and cross-section without To cut squeeze and tear zones.
- At least one Beck of the scissors is electric by means of a operated vibration device in a vibration parallel to Movable in the longitudinal direction of this pool.
- the invention has the advantage that thread-like clippings, in particular Hair, evenly over its circumference and cross section without squeezing and Tear zones can be cut. With the scissors according to the invention rolls and glides the hair between the blades when it is cut. It is cut reliably and evenly. When closing the Scissors axially guide the additional at least one cutting edge oscillating motion component to this improved cutting property.
- Vibration device contains a piezo transducer, which between the Blade and a handle-side cymbal lies, and the one connection between the sheet and the end of the pelvis.
- the oscillating movement is determined by the frequency and the amplitude with which the Piezo sensor swings.
- the oscillating movement should be carried out at such a high frequency. that within normal use of scissors in the cutting process, the hair rolls over its circumference at least once on the cutting edges.
- the vibration amplitude depends on the hair size. Approx. 100 to 200 ⁇ m can be set for the amplitude (claim 6). If both cutting edges vibrate simultaneously and are out of phase with each other, half the amplitude is sufficient. A system with adjustable amplitude and frequency for different clippings is possible.
- the piezo sensor can be operated with an ultrasonic frequency. It is integrated in at least one cutting edge. Analogous to an ultrasonic cleaning or welding sonotrode, the longitudinal shaft is transferred to the cutting edge.
- the ultimately mechanical vibration generator can be arranged on the cutting side or straw side of the scissors. A corresponding mechanical play in the bearing point should be noted on the straw side. The latter also applies to other vibration devices on the stalk.
- the system is controlled electrically by an ultrasonic generator, which is coupled to the electromechanical transducer via electrical connecting lines.
- the vibration device can also be designed such that the Beck at least in regions made of a magnetostrictive material exists, which is wrapped by a rigid, stationary excitation coil (Claim 4).
- the scissor blades are on a basic body applied from magnetostrictive material.
- the excitation coils can be found in the stalk area of the scissors be arranged. Via an electrical connection line Excitation coil connected to a generator.
- Nickel or a nickel alloy is suitable as material (claim 6).
- nickel has the required magnetostrictive properties
- nickel steel is very well suited for the manufacture of scissors.
- the material can have a plastic coating have (claim 5).
- FIG. 1 In the case of scissors 1 with two connected to one another via a joint 2 Beck 3, 4 is a Beck 4 by means of an electrically operated vibration device 5 into an oscillation parallel to the longitudinal direction 6 of the blade 7 this Beck 4 displaceable ( Figure 1).
- the vibration device 5 contains a piezo sensor 8, which lies between the blade 7 and the joint 2.
- the Piezegeggeber 8 is a connection 9, the blade 7 and the handle side Pool end 10 of the pool 4 connects together.
- the scissors 1 is as Hairdressing scissors 11 designed with eyes 12.
- An electrical line 13 supplies the piezo sensor 8 with an ultrasound frequency.
- During one Cutting process is the vibration of the blade 7, its amplitude 150 ⁇ m is used to cut hair better.
- the vibration device 5 is a Nail 14 of the joint 2 surrounding eccentric 15 provided inserted into a round recess 16 of the basin 4 and rotatable with the Nail 14 is connected.
- the eccentric disc 15 rotates around the nail 14. This rotational movement is achieved by means of a miniature motor 17.
- the entire Beck 4 carries out the vibration.
- a magnetostrictive material 18 is provided as the vibration device 5, which is wrapped by a rigid, stationary excitation coil 19.
- the vibration device 5 is provided on the stem 20 of the basin 4.
- a magnetostrictive material 18 has been used only within the excitation coil 19. Otherwise, the scissors 1 are made of conventional scissor steel 22.
- the material 18 is a nickel alloy 23.
- the basin 4 has a play 24 in the longitudinal direction 6 of the basin 4 on the nail 14.
- the game 24 has an extension of 150 ⁇ m in the longitudinal direction 6 corresponding to the amplitude of the vibration of the blade 7.
